Anchoring

Ground anchors are used in work to secure structures. A ground anchor is used to transfer to the ground all efforts applied to structures requiring stabilisation. The connection between the anchor and the ground features an embedded support plate. The installation of anchors must be simple to facilitate movement on steep slopes such as cliffs and road embankments.

Anchors are an essential phase in all stabilisation work. Their dimensioning and underpinning are critical factors which must rely on extensive prior experience.
